Mission?[edit]

The points are listed on the template, so I won't repeat them. I simply can't see how the current write-up is covered under the mission. While it's nice to have some general info on the nerdier and more obscure corners of the Internet, Amazon is pretty much mainstream. The sections on woo and wingnuts are ridiculous, and not in a good way. People are selling their books through an online bookstore? Oh, the humanity! And RW is not the place to catalogue every business with suspect business practices.--ZooGuard (talk) 09:02, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

Then take it down. I only added it because it's the largest online retailer and the wackier bits tend to get high reviews, which misleads some into buying crazy stuff. This article just points out that the reviews shouldn't be taken to heart which may discourage people from buying the nonsense but you can take down the article if you want, don't have a heart attack over it.ClothCoat (talk) 17:18, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
